Product Description
MooGoo Milk Wash uses a glucose based cleanser called "Capric Glucoside". This was originally developed for baby wipes and face wipes and has the same skin irritation score as water.We added genuine ingredients (not gimmicks) to prevent drying of the skin. Milk Protein (Casein) is similar to the skin's own protein and helps maintain elasticity. The natural ester Glycerol Oleate prevents skin water loss and leaves the skin smoother.
Our body wash does not create big bubbles like a synthetic detergent. It washes gently and without drying of the skin. Because it is so gentle it is also a no tears formulation in children's eyes.
Can the Milk Wash be used as a face cleanser? Yes... Glucoside Cleansers were originally designed to be used for face wipes and baby wipes. Although we package the Milk Wash for overall use, it is also one of the most gentle ways to wash the face available anywhere (including those others in tiny bottles).
We have packaged the Milk Body Wash in large 500ml containers. It also comes with a pump and the best way to use it is to squirt some on to a soft wash cloth. Try it and see just how good your skin becomes after washing with something as gentle as water that washes the skin without water loss.
Purified Water |
We could say ‘Aqua” |
Cocyl Glucoside and Decyl Glucoside (from Glucose) |
Glucosides are cleansers derived from mixing glucose with a fatty alcohol. They are generally acknowledged as the most gentle cleansers available. The downside of glucosides are they do not foam well and other problems that make them difficult to formulate. However, for our own use we didn’t really care about the foam, we simply wanted the most gentle cleanser for our face we could find. This is why our Milk Wash uses Glucosides as its main cleanser, and also why it doesn’t foam much. But we think your skin won’t mind. |
Cocobetaine and Sodium Lauroampoacetate |
Although it is tempting to keep our product simple and just use 1 or 2 natural cleansers, we know that using more cleansers each in small amounts is more gentle on the skin. That is why we also use 2 coconut oil based cleansers to help the glucosides above. |
Milk Protein |
Milk Protein, or Casein, is a beautiful skin conditioner. Dairy Allergies: Most people with milk allergies are allergic to Lactose in milk, not the protein. However, as with all natural products, they should be patch tested on a small area of skin first |
Glyceryl Oleate (Natural Ester) |
This helps condition and moisturise the skin. |
Aloe Vera |
As most people know, Aloe is a wonderful soothing plant. |
Glycol Distearate (Conditioner) |
Helps the skin feel smooth and soft after washing. |
Glyceryl Caprylate |
When water and natural ingredients are mixed, they can become contaminated with bacteria, some of which can be very dangerous. Our products are often used by people with already troubled skin and children, and bacteria are the last thing they need. We also use the products ourselves. We know that a tiny amount of an effective preservative in a natural product to keep the cream pure is a much safer option than taking chances with "natural" preservatives that are not very effective. Glyceryl Caprylate is an Ecocert Approved (Organic Approved) way of keeping this cream sterile. We voluntarily send our creams for testing to an independent laboratory that checks the purity of the cream if stored under 30 degrees for 2 years. This is called a British Pharmocopea Preservative Efficacy Test. |
Piroctone Olamine |
An Olamine salt that helps prevent yeast or mould growing. It is also non irritating and non-toxic. |
Fragrant Oil (Phthalate Free) |
Non-irritating and also helps keep the cream free from bacteria. |
We prefer to use phthalate-free fragrance oils as they are a much safer alternative. For fragrance that contain phthalates studies have shown it can interfere with hormones in the body, posing potential risks to the reproductive and thyroid systems |
I just recently purchased a couple of your products (the Full Cream Udder Cream and Milk Wash) to try on my 2 year old daughter who has eczema. I've tried the usual creams/soaps/washes and what not from the chemist but nothing really helped to settle it down. After reading about you guys (sorry I can't remember which magazine - I've just had my 3rd bub and still have pregnancy brain) I decided to give your products a go. I've only had the cream and wash for a few days but the difference I see in Lily's skin already is absolutely amazing. I've used the Milk Wash and Udder Cream on my hands for dermatitis - and again the results are amazing - my hands feel wonderful.
Thank you so much -just genius. Lisa. Vic (From we Got mail Page)
By the way, just wanted to let you know how awesome the milk wash is... NO residue, NO tears and leaves my skin feeling beautiful, not dry or flaky like some other soaps nor greasy like some oil-based commercial removers. I simply can't rave enough about your sensational products.

Cows Don't Need Gimmicks.
They Want Healthy Udders!
MooGoo was first made when the founder adapted a cream used in dairy farms to help a family member with a skin problem. The dairy version of "udder cream" was designed to heal the cow's udders and keep them in good condition for milking. It was full of skin repair ingredients and no gimmicks.
